In good news for Game of Thrones fans, or fans of Aquaman who want the guy to get a little meaner, there are reports that DC's underwater superhero will be appearing in the Batman v Superman movie. And he'll be played by the same guy who played Khal Drogo.

While it hasn't been announced by Warner Bros. yet, movie site Hitfix seem awfully confident that Jason Momoa has been cast, writing:

HitFix can confirm that he will be playing the part, and that Zack Snyder has already finalized his designs for the character so shooting can take place soon.

This isn't the first time Momoa has been linked with the role, but it's the first time someone has stuck their neck out and said it's for real.

They also report that while Aquaman won't have a major role in the movie, he will be turning up to let Superman know he's not exactly happy with the mess that was made at the end of Man of Steel. That appearance will also set the stage for him turning up in the Justice League movie.

I hope it's true. Momoa made a name for himself playing a badass with a beard. Modern Aquaman has a beard and is in need of being a little more badass. It'd be a good fit.
